fficials in the Gaza Interior Ministry, controlled by Hamas, reported that more than 20 local residents were killed in a crime prevention operation carried out by Palestinian security forces in cooperation with tribal committees.
According to the report, the victims were members of gangs that took control of aid trucks entering the Gaza Strip.
"Today's security operation will not be the last," these officials told Hamas's Al-Aqsa channel. "This is the beginning of a large-scale security operation that has been planned for some time and it will expand to include everyone involved in the theft from the aid trucks."
They emphasized that "Security forces will punish with an iron hand anyone involved in aiding the gangs of thieves" and that "the security operation is not directed against the tribes themselves, but its purpose is to eliminate the phenomenon of theft from trucks, which has had a significant impact on society, causing signs of hunger in the southern Gaza Strip."
"The security forces take pride in the Palestinian tribes in eastern Rafah, and the involvement of some of them in the theft plans will not harm the history of these families who have produced hundreds of martyrs," these officials said.
